Cloud Foundry makes it faster and easier to build, test, deploy, and scale applications. On the other hand, Elastic Cloud is detailed as "Deploy, operate, and scale Elastic products and solutions in the cloud". A growing family of Elastic SaaS offerings that make it easy to deploy, operate, and scale Elastic products and solutions in the cloud.
